The objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness of polidocanol in managing pain, swelling, functional limiting and cosmetic disorders in patients with venous malformations (VMs). This retrospective study included patients who underwent sclerotherapy with polidocanol for VMs between 2020 and 2022. Patient records, imaging findings, and evaluation questionnaires used in the preprocedure and follow-up phases were reviewed. After sclerotherapy, patients were followed up at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months. During these visits, the previously used 11-point verbal numerical rating scale (from 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst pain thinkable]) was used to evaluate the severity of symptoms such as pain, swelling, cosmetic discomfort, and functional limitation, and patients were asked to report the number of days per week they experienced these symptoms owing to the VM. A total of 194 sclerotherapy procedures (mean, 1.6 ± 0.3 procedures) in 84 patients (55 female and 29 male patients; mean age, 22.45 ± 11.83 years) were conducted. The majority of these malformations (81%, or 68 patients) were located in the extremities. We found a significant decrease in pain, swelling, functional limitation, cosmetic appearance, and number of painful days between all time points, except for the comparison between months 3 and 6 (P < .001) CONCLUSIONS: Polidocanol sclerotherapy is a safe and effective treatment for VMs that significantly decreases patient complaints and has a very low complication rate. Particularly, following patients at short intervals and administering additional sclerotherapy sessions when necessary will significantly increase patient satisfaction.
